kitget

Display and customize cat images in your terminal 😼

kitget

Usage

Fastfetch integration

You can use kitget directly with Fastfetch:

kitget --square | fastfetch --file-raw -

This might not work on terminals supporting images. Example Bash function (to use in your ~/.bashrc) for Kitty:

ff() {
    stamp="$(date +%s)"
    kitget --square -o "/tmp/kitget-$stamp"
    clear
    fastfetch --kitty "/tmp/kitget-$stamp" "$@"
    rm -f "/tmp/kitget-$stamp"
}

Installation

Arch Linux

kitget is available in the AUR. It can be installed using an AUR helper (e.g. paru):

paru -S kitget

Cargo

For all systems supported by Rust, you can install kitget using Cargo:

cargo install kitget

Keep in mind that crates installed with cargo install have to be manually upgraded and may not be included in $PATH by default.

Thanks to

Kevin Balicot for the Cat as a service API (go give him money)
